The authors will see, hear and even feel many events, issues, individuals, etc, etc., and those things will get ‘seeded’ in the author’s mind, and will ‘sprout’ out in the form of creative works including autobiographies or semi-autobiographies.

...Ayn Rand Ayn Rand's philosophy expressed in the novella “Anthem” (1937) was a reaction against the Soviet system and world socialist movement, which she experienced personally and rejected critically for a more conservative return to natural law and Enlightenment values. Rand’s experience as a youth of witnessing directly the Russian Socialist Revolution led by Vladimir Lenin, the turmoil that she experienced in being accused as a bourgeoisie reactionary in her university days, and her exile or immigration to the West all undoubtedly left a defining mark upon the development of her personality. Rand embraced the values of the West and America in the days before World War II when... ? Anthem: A Novel by...

...Ayn Rand In her text The Fountainhead, Ayn Rand tries to bring across the idea of who an ideal man is. To achieve this, she writes this novel based on the idea of objectivism, which she describes as ‘a philosophy for living on earth’. Thus, this brings us to the idea of individualism and collectivism in men’s souls, in other words egoism and altruism respectively. This is the situation in the real society where some people engage in some actions only for the benefit of themselves but in other cases, people consider the feelings and wellbeing of other people in the actions that they undertake. In this text, Howard Roark discusses the motives... Objectivist Philosophies in the text The Fountainhead by Ayn ...

The format that this paper will utilize is to first provide a critical discussion on what the strengths and weaknesses to Ayn Rands approach to ethics followed by a discussion on whether or not there is a danger if Atlas were to shrug and will provide an explanation as to whether or not this would be a bad thing. As with the ideas of any philosopher it is likely that there will be both strengths and weaknesses to their approach to ethics. In the case of Ayn Rand it was argued by Bass (1999) that there are three fundamental weaknesses to Ayn Rands approaches which are foundationalism... ...

...Ayn Rand. Objectivism is unique in its way that it’s the antidote of the society we live in. In essence, existence and one’s self-consciousness become the vital points that influence our perception. Without existence and consciousness, no foundation of knowledge can be built. Objectivism bases judgment on the notion of education rather than celebrating on the issue of diversity. Without knowledge, one is not able to truly identify themselves. Thus, it is safe to say existence and every action is executed should be based of knowledge.
Hence, it is clear that relativism acknowledge that what seems to be real and what seems to be true will differ from culture to culture. Thus, the theory states...

...Ayn Rands Philosophy Meaning of Sex Sex is a physical capa and its exercise is determined by a man’s mind by his choice of values held consciously and unconsciously over time whenever he is in love. Sex is an appearance of self-confidence to a rational man hence his choice of the woman is very vital for his status in the society (Rand 99). To a man who lacks self-confidence, sex is an endeavor to fake it hence acquires its brief delusion in order to be in the same level with others in the society. A man sexual choice is the results of the sum of his fundamental convictions hence can be used to gauge his entire philosophy of life thus he should make a good...

...Ayn Rand Introduction Discussing the novel “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand, many readers would say that all the author’s main thoughts and beliefs are gathered in the Chapter 7 “This is John Galt Speaking”. This chapter can be deservingly called “a heart” of the novel. Everybody would agree that the book by Rand possesses many unique characteristics, but it is essential to consider “Atlas Shrugged” to be not only a fiction, but philosophic message that may seem not very understandable at first. It is not right to consider the novel as contrasting the “good” socialism and “bad” capitalism. This approach represents not only the simplification... of human efforts, the capital and governmental...

As the title of the novel indicates, the story of Atlas has been used as a metaphor in this novel. Atlas, “the giant who holds the world on his shoulders” has been equated with the citizens of a society, who are holding up the society as a functional entity. One character of the novel saying that he would advice Atlas to shrug so that the world does not continue to crush him under his weight, is the catch line of this novel.

Ubermensch, the Superman, and who he really is The concept of a superhero has been around for a long time.

There are also many other heroic figures in our mythology that embody what we think of when we consider the term ‘superman’. But what exactly do we mean when we think of a man who is over and above all the rest? This question has been considered by philosophers and thinkers such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Bernard Shaw and...

Egoism: The Theory of Self-Interest Egoism, the advocating of self-interest, is a pervasive notion that everyone has selfish desires that must be satisfied. Derived from the Latin word 'ego' meaning self, egoism has had support from some unlikely corners and has gathered the wrath of others. When taken to extremes, either in society or analysis, it can become problematic. We can identify the obstacles it presents in life by the negative depiction of an 'egotistical person' or 'their ego got in the way'. Though as a philosophy it is untenable, it is useful in the development of society, economic systems, and our study of altruistic...

Unfortunately, we do not have the skill of foresight to determine which field we would spend our life happy being into, a field we would excel.

The journey will be spent in an aimless wandering devoid of purpose.
